Customer Reviews Free People Royale Flat

I love them but they are slightly big and my right foot does get bothered a bit by the high ankle. MAybe I sized to big My feet at 9.85" and I got a 40

So comfy and cute! Did not fall off on a roller coaster or zip line.

I wish they had these is a 42! I am normally a Women's US Size 10, I tend to buy a 42 in EU sizes as they always run smaller than the size charts indicate I should buy, since they dont go up to 42 I ordered the 41 and they are 1/2 size small. Even though my toes are a little crowded at the point, I'm keeping them. The leather is like butter, and I think will only get better after a few wears. They look exceptionally cute on. I can wait to pair them with a pair of torn boyfriends jeans and a cute blazer.

These shoes are so beautiful! As most reviews have stated, the whiskey taupe is a lot lighter than pictured and more resembles the brown color pictured. In regard to size, these shoes are super tricky. I usually wear a 9 and I purchased the black Mount Blanc Free People sandals last summer in a 39 and they fit perfect. A 39 in this flat was slightly too small. I have ordered the half sizes in Free People shoes and there is basically no difference between the 39 and the 39.5. I sized up to a 40 in this shoe in the whiskey taupe and it was much to big. I then ordered several size 40s in this shoe to size compare and each pair fit slight different but I did end up with a shoe that fit well after trying 5 different pairs (which is how much I wanted these to work). I am not sure if it is just the whiskey taupe color that fits so differently between the individual pairs of shoes of the same size, but i would recommend ordering several (thanks to Zappos great return policy) to get the right fit and leather grain (as this can vary dairy drastically as well).

The shoes are beautiful and exactly what I wanted. The color is a little different from the picture, a less vibrant yellow than the image here and on the free people website, but it's natural leather; colors and wear will vary. I'm usually a solid size 7 in most shoes, with my right foot being slightly larger than my left. With these I ordered a 37, the right foot felt slightly tight but the left was a perfect fit. I know leather stretches but I'm not sure if I want to struggle through the stretch. I'm considering exchanging them for a 37.5 but I also don't want them to stretch out then be stuck with shoes that are too big.So for now they're just waiting in the box waiting for me to make an executive decision. Either way, I will end up with a pair.

The "Taupe" color is not! In my opinion it is a "Whiskey" or "Saddle".

Love these shoes. I usually wear a 36 but my heel walks right out of the show ... for both of my feet (even larger of my two feet). The 35.5 seems like a great fit length wise but the toe box is squishes my toes a bit. I haven't decided if I want to chance them stretching enough to fit comfortably (these are expensive shoes). And, I never have a problem with the width of shoes for my toes. I wear a medium / regular width shoe. I'm sure it's because these super cute shoes are pointy.

I tried the 39.5 and 40 and were both snug. I wear a 9.5 and have a narrow foot. I sent them back. A little too pointy as well, which made my feet look big. They're cute on smaller feet!

I have these shoes in another color, size 40. I originally ordered another size 40 and when they arrived, they felt much smaller. I then ordered a 40.5. When they arrived, they felt much larger. These shoes, although very stylish, are not consistent in size from one shoe to the next. I will be returning all sizes.

The quality of the shoe is poor even right out of the box.

I wore these out! Comfortable and good craftsmanship.

Love these booties!! So cute and comfy. They look great with jeans and skirts. They are really comfortable even with no socks. No break in period. Dress up and dress down outfits. Really unique. I get tons of compliments on them. The color is a very light gray but works with everything.

My go to flat!!

This is my go to shoe. I have them in two colors and get compliments every time I wear them. Comfy, stylish and versatile.

These shoes feel like butter! They are so soft and beautiful. The style is amazing! Iv never loved a pair of shoes so much!

Looks good, the whiskey leather is yummy! Will look good with everything! Fast shipping!

I normally wear a size 11 and can usually fit in european sizes 41-42 but, had to return the first pair in black as they were a bit too small at 41 &1/2. Because the 42 wasn't available in black, I ordered a 42 in "grey". They arrived lightening fast and were much easier to get on and felt more comfortable. They're not grey, however. They are more neutral, light tan which I really like and, are more apt to go with just about everything. The leather is soft and beautiful. Lots of compliments. Zappos is the best!!!

Just as wonderful as I imagined! I really like the whiskey (cognac) color, and would like a few other colors as well. Comfortable, stylish, minimalist, boho, and polished all at the same time. My new favorite shoe!

Great looking shoe, colors are definitely off. A lot lighter then pictures

Love them.... the colors are definitely lighter as others noted. I am a year round flip flop gal but as I get older my feet are get cold now. These are perfect for no sock person. They are stylish and got compliments the first time I wore them.

I’m between an 8 and 8.5. The 38.5 was a good fit. I got them in “gray” which is more of a taupy gray. I love them. Wish they were in stock in more colors in my size.

These shoes are so stylish. Like a new twist on an old, staple shoe: the loafer. The chocolate color is gorgeous and has a slight reptile print overlaid on it. I got numerous compliments on them last week when i wore them for the first time.

Fit was fine. However, I ordered these shoes in brown - and when they arrived, they were a yellow color. I thought a mistake had been made, and customer service was very responsive and helpful. However, when I reordered, they sent another pair that were the wrong color AGAIN - this time a grey color. I will not be trying for a third time.

A fresh look, love it! Fits well and doesn't slide. Grey color goes with so many outfits.

In love. Perfect for the NY fall weather. I’ve worn them with jeans paired with casual and/or dressy tops for dinner with friends. They’re comfortable if you’re on your feet all day. Received many compliments.
